as faye in underage will Jackson be done or is he a minor too?

i would expect anna to be investigated as faye's adopted parent for allowing her to become preggers by social services

I think he is also underage!
As the Soap Social Services didnt " investigate"
Anna fully before she was allowed to adopt/
foster Faye-I would doubt they would follow
other procedures properly.

I know Real Social Services dont always get a good
press but from people I know who have fostered
- they were very thorough (verging on intrusive)
in the checks/ interviews they did but the would-be
fosterers accepted that because it was a childs
welfare.!!
We will see how the story progresses.

A further point- as Faye tho now 13 was presumably
under 13 at the time sexual.intercourse took place
- she is deemed under latest laws in England Wales
&N Ireland to be unable to give consent.
If the male is 10 or over - then he could be charged
with rape or unlawful sexual intercourse
dependent on circs.
Its very complicated -so I hope some thorough
research by qualified persons has been done!

I think even the best of parents would struggle to keep their children from being sexually active these days. With all the pressure on girls i do not know how they cope with it all. I do agree that Social servces did not do the right checks on Anna though. That was during the time she was with Eddie Windass which makes it even more amazing. However Faye wants to be with Anna so she must be doing something right...or its more than what she had before so she is clinging on to it.

Faye and her baby were left home soon but the baby does look very healthy for a premature new born a fine size too

As usual Owen the thug and Anna were annoying

I like Eileen's new fella

I think Faye just doesnt want to go back into
care. That and an abusive neglectful mother are
her only experiences of life til now.
She doesnt have the confidence of a normal
family life where most children know that tho
there may disagreements etc with your parents-
they will stand by you.

My main issue with Anna being allowed to
foster is not the criminal fringes of the family
( which is bad.)but her personality. She is almost
the exact opposite of the qualities said to be
required. They usually interview people who
have known fosterer for a considerable time.
I dont think she is a balanced enough person
to have care of someone with Fayes history.
Being too controlling can be as abusive as
neglect -in a way.
Probably does ensure clean clothes & meals
tho!
The sexualisation of children is a big problem
and it is difficult for parents-but Anna might
have spotted some more obvious signs if
she didnt spend so much time interferimg/
commenting in matters not her business.

Anyway Mr B has the matter in.hand.......
